As a trusted manufacturer since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory is proud to introduce our Fire Retardant PC Glass Fiber Woven Prepreg Tape – a high-performance composite material specifically engineered for aerospace structural components. Our advanced prepreg tape combines the lightweight strength of polycarbonate (PC) with woven glass fiber reinforcement, offering exceptional fire retardancy and mechanical integrity. With annual export values exceeding US$5 million and a global footprint spanning North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond, we deliver consistent quality that meets the rigorous demands of aerospace applications.
This prepreg tape is designed to withstand extreme thermal and mechanical stress, making it ideal for use in aircraft interiors, engine nacelles, structural panels, and other critical components. The woven glass fiber architecture provides excellent dimensional stability and impact resistance, while the PC resin system ensures inherent flame retardance without compromising processability. Our factory in Hengshui, Hebei, China, leverages decades of experience in composite materials to produce tapes that offer superior wet-out, tack, and drape for efficient layup and curing.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Fire Retardant Performance: Compliant with aerospace flammability standards (self-extinguishing; passes vertical burn tests). The PC matrix releases minimal smoke and toxic gases, enhancing passenger safety.
- Woven Glass Fiber Reinforcement: Balanced 0°/90° or custom weave patterns provide high tensile strength (≥500 MPa) and modulus, ideal for load-bearing structures.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in widths from 10 mm to 300 mm and thicknesses from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm. Tapes can be slit to precise widths for automated layup machines.
- Controlled Resin Content: 35%–45% resin weight ensures optimal fiber wet-out and consistent mechanical properties after curing. Resin viscosity is tailored for both hand layup and prepreg compression molding.
- Thermal Stability: Service temperature range from -40°C to +150°C continuous, with short-term peaks up to 200°C. Suitable for autoclave or oven curing cycles.
- Excellent Adhesion: The PC resin exhibits strong adhesion to itself and to common core materials (honeycomb, foam), enabling co-cured sandwich structures.

Benefits for Aerospace Customers
- Weight Reduction: Compared to traditional metal components, our PC/glass fiber tape offers up to 40% weight savings, contributing to fuel efficiency and payload capacity.
- Design Flexibility: The woven prepreg tape conforms easily to complex curves and contours, allowing integration into intricate structural parts without bridging or wrinkling.
- Streamlined Processing: Optimized resin chemistry provides a tacky surface for easy layup and a long out-time (up to 30 days at room temperature). Cure cycles can be as low as 30 minutes at 150°C.
- Enhanced Safety: The fire-retardant PC resin reduces the risk of flame propagation and limits smoke generation, meeting stringent aerospace interior safety requirements.
- Cost-Effective Manufacturing: As a direct manufacturer, we offer competitive pricing without compromising quality. Our production capacity enables rapid turnaround for large-volume orders.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the typical shelf life of this prepreg tape, and how should it be stored?
A: The prepreg tape has a shelf life of 6 months when stored at -18°C (0°F) in sealed moisture-proof bags. For short-term use, it can be kept at room temperature for up to 30 days without significant degradation. -
Q: Can this tape be used for autoclave curing, and what are the recommended cure parameters?
A: Yes, it is compatible with autoclave curing. Recommended cure cycle: ramp at 2-3°C/min to 150°C, hold for 30 minutes under 0.7 MPa (100 psi) pressure, then cool at 3°C/min to below 60°C before venting. -
Q: Does the tape meet any specific aerospace flammability standards like FAR 25.853?
A: Our tape is designed to pass the vertical burn test specified in FAR 25.853 (a) and (b) for interior materials. We recommend performing full qualification testing for your specific application. We can provide test data upon request. -
Q: What widths and thicknesses are available as standard?
A: Standard widths include 12.7 mm, 25.4 mm, 50.8 mm, and 100 mm. Custom widths from 10 mm to 300 mm can be produced. Thickness options range from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm. -
Q: Can you supply the tape in slit rolls for automated fiber placement (AFP) machines?
A: Yes, we can slit the tape to widths as narrow as 6.35 mm (1/4 inch) with tight tolerances (±0.2 mm). The tape is wound on 3-inch or 6-inch cores with consistent tension. -
Q: What is the maximum continuous service temperature for cured laminates?
A: Cured laminates can withstand continuous service temperatures from -40°C to +150°C. Short-term exposure up to 200°C is acceptable for limited durations. -
Q: Is this tape suitable for high-humidity environments or outdoor exposure?
A: The PC resin offers good moisture resistance, but prolonged exposure to high humidity (>85% RH) may affect the prepreg's tack and handling. We recommend using the tape within the shelf life and storing in dry conditions. -
Q: Do you offer technical support or sample kits for evaluation?
A: Absolutely. We provide free sample rolls (up to 1 meter length) for evaluation. Our technical team can also assist with process optimization and joint quality testing. Simply contact us with your requirements.
